SID-00711: Auto-refresh topic after edit

Is there a way to auto refresh topics after edit? I am looking for a more elegant way than putting - <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2"> - in a particular topic.

Not sure I understand the use case and what kind of functionality you envision. Could you explain?

I have meetings with other people and we constantly update a topic. Is it possible for the twiki to do a page refresh of the topic after a specific amount of time? Let's say one minute after each update. One minute can take into consideration back to back updates by meeting participants or there may be a better way.

Right now, each participant has to do a page refresh on their own in order to see updates to the topic.

That would require some Ajax magic to sense when a topic has been updated by someone else. A useful enhancement request. Feel free to post one, with details. Link in sidebar.

We do meetings using http://etherpad.com/ - write meeting minutes in TWiki syntax, then when meeting is over, copy into TWiki page.
